My 1st Year at Trail's End

We pride ourselves on being more than a summer camp. We offer a once in a lifetime experience through personal growth, self discovery and friendships. It takes more than just state-of-the-art facilities and beautiful grounds to achieve this.

Our staff help make camp a summer home to everyone who passes through our gates. The feeling of warmth, spirit and tradition are evident in everything we do.

Our staff is made up of dedicated individuals who want to positively impact children, while also gaining practical childcare experience. Many of our staff members are seasoned educators, education students, coaches and/or students looking for careers in sports management or exercise science. The end result is a team of people who are dedicated to our campers and passionate about creating memories that will last a lifetime.
